I'd like a higher max size limit for static arrays: uint[10_000_000] arr; For the LDC compiler is a fully arbitrary limit, it can support higher values. I'd like ldc to be free to use a higher limit.
Most/all PC CPUs & operating systems are probably going to become 64 bit, but in D int values are 32 bit, so some years from now, when everything is 64 bit D programs will probably keep containing: int i; Unless D programmers will train themselves to nearly never use int and usually use: long i; that will be about as equally fast, but less probable to cause integral overflow. The choice of 32 bit as default int number in D may look bad few years from now. I don't see good solution. To me the best solution seems to use "long" everywhere in future programs fit for a 64 bit world (cent/ucent will be present, LLVM supports them already, so it's easy to add them to LDC).
